While it doesn't have a huge effect, it seems fine to use it consistently. It has no stickiness, no oiliness, and is very lightweight, so it's good to use as an ampoule base and then follow up with the next step. Using it together with other products makes it more moisturizing and better, rather than using it alone.
ConsIt's a product that's fine to use consistently, but I'm not sure if there's a compelling reason to use it. I'd recommend it to those looking for an extremely lightweight product!

It had marine collagen ingredients, which was good. It was a whitening and wrinkle-improving product, which was good.
ConsAs a first serum, the volume was quite large, but the case was made of plastic, so it felt like a nail remover. It would be better if you could change the case to glass and make it a dropper type. Plastic will likely leach endocrine disruptors, which is worrying. The fragrance also had an unpleasant, stale plastic-like smell, which was disappointing. And as a light-type essence, it lacked sufficient moisture after use, so it had a sticky feeling, making it better suited for winter use rather than summer.
TipSince the product lacks moisture, you can apply it in layers. But if you apply too much, it will become sticky. However, since the volume is large, you can also use it on dry body parts.

It has a slight viscosity. The best thing is that it's not heavy and is lightweight. On these hot days, a sticky feeling can be unpleasant... 🥲 It doesn't slide off when applied before makeup and provides a suitable base for makeup. 😆 For dry skin types, you can just use it as a toner.
ConsFor oily skin, it was lightweight and refreshing, and absorbed well into the skin. However, for dry skin types, it may be too lightweight and not provide enough coverage. It feels more like a toner than an essence. Please keep this in mind when purchasing. If you're expecting a typical rich essence, you may find it too lightweight and be disappointed. 😔 The brightening effect was quite mild compared to other products... As someone who is often exposed to sunlight, I had higher expectations, but the effect is not very noticeable unless you look closely. 😓
TipFor oily skin: You can apply it before makeup for a refreshing and lightweight skincare routine! For dry skin: You can treat it like a toner and it should work well for you.

This was my first time using an essence after only using toners before. 🎈Fragrance The fragrance is refreshing. While not completely natural, the scent was not unpleasant to me. 🎈Texture and Application Since my skin is very dry, I usually use toners with a bit more oil content. I thought the essence would be quite oily, but it was surprisingly lightweight. The texture is thin and runny, almost watery. When applied to my face, it spreads smoothly without any sticky or tacky feeling. It feels very refreshing! 🎈Skin Condition After using this essence instead of my regular toner for a few days, my skin condition hasn't worsened, but I haven't noticed significant improvements either. It may be too soon to tell, so I'll continue using it and provide an update later. As for the new breakouts, they don't seem to be caused by the essence, as I usually get a few here and there.
Cons🎈Longevity Although this is an essence, its lightweight texture and quick absorption means my skin still feels a bit dry afterwards. Surprisingly, the essence seems to evaporate quickly, leaving no sticky or tacky residue just a few minutes after application. I've had to apply a moisturizer on top to address the remaining dryness. While the fragrance and application are nice, for those with very dry skin like mine, this essence alone may not be enough hydration.
TipAs mentioned above, since this essence is quite lightweight and absorbs quickly, I recommend following up with a moisturizer to address any remaining dryness.
